Karkata lagna

Pushya Nakshatra lagna

Parivartamsha yoga of Shani + Guru = exchange of L-6+ L-7+ L-8+ L-9

• (cf. Albert Einstein)

Mangala = Ruchaka Yoga

• [L-5]+L-10 Mangala in 10

• direct-action Mangala in 10 receives dik-bala

Harsha Yoga = L-6 Guru in 8

Public career is exceptionally strong:

• L-3+ L-4+ L-5+ L-10+ L-11+ L-12 = in karma bhava

• L-2+ L-7+ L-8 = in Guru-ruled Meena = 10th from Chandra

• Chandra lagnesha = Guru-ruled Punarvasu Nakshatra

• Budha = L-10 navamsha [attorney]

• Rahu in bhava-5 = idealistic, political and romantic . Political election, romance, or children provides a platform for personal ascendance. Rahu craves elevation to a higher social station via politics, theatre, children, or creative performance.

Ketu in bhava 11 = Rahu in bhava 5

• Ambivalence (Ketu) toward economic gain and social networks
• Desire (Rahu) to be recognized as a politically intelligent performance genius

Three-time California State Governor, yet still Brown suffers Budha + Shukra + Mangala in 6th-from-Rahu + 12th-from-Ketu = karma bhava.

• Brown has done well in elections to various important civic offices at the US-State level. He has won the Governor's election three times, been voted State's Attorney-General, a two-term Mayor of the very large city of Oakland, and numerous other top roles in governing the US state whose population is greater than the nation of Canada.

• However, unlike many US politicians who used their fame and power from California governance as a launching pad to project themselves into power roles in Washington D.C., Brown has never won a US-national level election. He failed in US Senate bids and he failed several times to win the Democratic nomination for the USA presidential election. This failure is extra frustrating considering that Brown's name and image are well recognized (or were, when he wanted the national role) across many sections of the USa demographic.

• Still, every time he aimed for the top - he failed. He encountered no serious animosity or disagreement at the state level, but when the goal became national-level governance rank, Brown hit the skids. He could not get the support he needed either financially or from the essential base of volunteer campaigners. Indeed, in the culture of national elections he projected an image of extreme liberalism and youthful idealism that appeared sensualized and self-indulgent (Shukra + Mangala) and his rhetoric (Budha) sounded almost warlike (Mesha) in the polarized young-innovators-against-old-bigots cultural debates of the later decades of the 20th century.

• With the lords of six bhava in bhava-10, Brown is surely a capable leader and widely recognized after decades of holding high-visibility (10) government (10) positions. His father Pat Brown was CA governor before young Jerry started doing the job; clearly the father's knowledge and values (10) contributed a great deal to the younger governor's repeated successes in state regulation and imposing the rule of law (10).

• However those same six bhava-pati occupy the awkward and disagreeable 6th-from-Rahu + 12th-from-Ketu. Brown has proven himself a highly capable governing executive but still he never quite achieves the top ranks, due to karma bhava's inauspicious angle to Rahu-Ketu.
